Despite energizing FEARNOTs and gaining new fans along the way, the quintet’s performance, which included popular songs such as “Perfect Night,””EASY,””UNFORGIVEN,”and “FEARLESS,”received criticism from some netizens who felt that the group’s singing skills were lacking.

This predicament eventually led to numerous critiques and sparked animosity towards LE SSERAFIM’s performance. However, an equal number of FEARNOTs rose in defense of the group, countering the negative comments and undesired hate on the internet.

On April 15, a group of Korean internet users created an internet forum called, “Wow, Chaewon Looks Extremely Irritated.”

During the forum, the author shared a clip from Chaewon’s Instagram Stories where rapper Doja Cat can be seen defiantly giving the middle finger during her performance. Chaewon was among the audience members who attended the third day of Coachella 2024 and thoroughly enjoyed Doja Cat’s set.

“OP commented, “That f**k you lol.”

The comments section was flooded with comments from frustrated netizens who believed that Chaewon had no ulterior motives when she shared the video, and that she was simply enjoying Doja Cat’s performance. However, some K-netz were taken aback by Chaewon’s actions.

Peruse the comments written by them down below:

  • “Didn’t she delete that story?”
  • “This part was probably the most memorable part for her. Stop with the forced hate.”
  • “What the? Kim Chaewon released that herself?”
  • “Ah, this is embarrassing.”
  • “As expected from an it-girl.”
  • “She was just watching Doja Cat’s concert.”
  • “I don’t think she released it with any intentions behind it.”

However, there were also some netizens who were certain that Chaewon was intentionally throwing shade at the critics on the internet and criticized her for her actions. They expressed their disappointment and advised the idol to seek guidance rather than reacting negatively online.

This is how they responded:

  • “Girl-child! Take the criticism. Own your s**t. Keep that post up. Loss.”
  • “Gurl this doesn’t change the fact you sucked. If I wasn’t doing my job properly I’d be getting fired the next, so get your lazy a** back in that studio.”
  • “She’s getting pis**d off instead of taking criticism as a sign. Her group needs vocal lessons. This is embarrassing.”
  • “She should learn how to take criticism instead of getting pis**d go take vocal lessons.”

Some international fans disagreed with the accusations of Chaewon shading critics and instead argued that she is simply a fan of Doja Cat.

  • “Okay, now y’all are reaching. Chaewon’s a Doja fan. LSF were seen attending a bunch of other shows the next day.”
  • “The ‘overanalyzing everything they do’ is starting I see.”
  • “I just assumed she was posting a clip because she enjoyed the performance or something. I don’t think there is any meaning behind it lol.”
